FAQs
What size should my Discord photo be?
Discord expects 128×128 minimum at 1:1 (square), under 8 mb (nitro limits differ), in JPG, PNG, or GIF. Practical upload: 512×512 to 1024×1024.
How do I keep my face inside the Discord circle crop?
Face fills the circle used in every message and reply. Keep important detail inside the center 80% — Discord’s round mask is aggressive.
Will it pass on Discord?
Yes. The output is a realistic likeness of you, not a cartoon or filter. Pick a Foundations or Corporate style and the photo reads as a normal studio shoot.
Can I keep my face exactly the same?
Yes — your face, hair, and skin tone stay locked. Only clothing, lighting, and background change.
How fast is generation?
Most headshots are ready in 5 to 15 seconds. You can iterate, then "Edit with words" for tweaks, all in under a minute.
